Further up is not possible, it is already at its limit at 223cm, the remaining difference to 255cm is due to the [Raffstore].

Or we simply make the children's room windows facing south 300cm x 140cm.....then the parapet comes to 83cm, plus 13cm frame it would be 96cm to look out, but those would already be really huge windows!

I completely agree with the architect. The [Lichtband] is not a lookout but simply a [Lichtband]. Different heights certainly look poor both from the inside and the outside.

The window area seems too large for the room to me. It will get nicely warm in there. Happy sweating.

You have quite a mix of windows on the facade. In addition, it seems you are planning light strips as lookout, as apokolok called it, which misses the point a bit in my opinion.

Which side of the facade do you mean? Well, whether the windows are now as planned 300 x 110 or 300 x 140.... there isn’t much difference. And no, we have not planned [Lichtbänder] as a lookout, my wife just wants to be sure not to make a mistake with the parapet height. We are already aware that a [Lichtband] is not a lookout. The [Lichtbänder] are anyway only on the north side and east side, so the bedroom and bathroom.

Therefore, the plea is to consistently raise the light bands upward. Who might be able to look out how is actually not an argument. It is about the incidence of light and not about the function as a lookout.

The mentioned dimensions mean an increase in window area of 27%. That is not little. For ~15sqm rooms facing south, a very, very high amount of heat input.
